Objectives: The objective of the study is to evaluate the examination findings, treatment methods, and follow-up results of children diagnosed with infantile esotropia (IE) and to compare botulinum toxin A (BTA) and bilateral medial rectus (MR) recession surgery.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who were diagnosed with IE. The age of the patient and the angle of deviation were taken into account to determine the treatment.
Objectives: The goal of this study was to evaluate surgical techniques and outcomes in patients with Brown's syndrome.
Methods: A retrospective review was conducted of patients who underwent surgery of the superior oblique (SO) muscle between 2003 and 2011 at a referral center.
Results: In all, 190 patients (111 female and 79 male) with an age range of 4-50 years were included in the study.
Purpose: To investigate inter-eye retinal vessel density and thickness asymmetry in unilateral pseudoexfoliation syndrome and understand its use for the early detection of glaucoma.
Methods: Thirty patients with unilateral pseudoexfoliation syndrome were enrolled in our study. Optical coherence tomography angiography macular scans were used measure the retinal vessel density, and optical coherence tomography scans were used to assess the thickness parameters of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer and the macular ganglion cell complex.
Article Synopsis
- This study introduces a new surgical method aimed at enhancing muscle strength and vascular protection while repositioning the extraocular muscles.
- The researchers analyzed patient records, comparing pre- and post-operative eye movements and measurements, with follow-ups lasting over six months.
- Results indicated successful transposition in patients with greater than 7 mm muscle resection, while some limitations were noted in smaller resections, but overall the technique proved to be safe and effective.*
Purpose: To evaluate a simpler approach of the medial transposition of split lateral rectus technique in patients with complete third nerve palsy.
Methods: All eyes with complet third nerve palsy were followed in our Strabismus Department between 2014 and 2016. All patients had complete oculamotor nerve palsy.
In this report, we present a case with presumed unilateral tuberculosis uveitis from an endemic region. A 23-year-old male presented with decreased vision in his left eye for 15 days. Visual acuities were 1.

Methods: Between January 2005 and February 2006, 32 patients (32 eyes) underwent passive silicone oil removal with a 25-gauge system in a prospective, interventional case series in our hospital. Main data recorded were visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), silicone oil removal time, complications, and number of sutured sites.
